Topic: Spore problem :( (Read 7919 times)

I have tried to run Spore again to make some new things in preparation for GA, but whenever I start it, I get this messed up screen and nothing else.

I would get a picture of it, but that doesn't work either, so I whipped up a somewhat accurate drawing in paint of what I am getting.

The only thing that happened to my computer lately is one of my SLI Graphics cards kicked the bucket, so I am only running on one, so that appears to be the most logical cause, however, i am not good with computers, so it may not be. >_>

Have you actually removed the 'dead card' from your computer? The first thing that came to mind was that it was trying to use the broken card.C:\Documents and Settings\SkywardOrWhateverYouAreCalled\Application Data\SPORE\

Delete the preferences folder. This'll reset your options so hopefully it'll try to re-detect what you want to use to render the game with.If that doesnt work, you'll have to figure a way to edit the preferences file to switch the entry for the broken card, with the remaining good one.

You, Snork. He assumed you were trolling because you didn't read his posts properly.HE. DOES. NOT. HAVE. GALACTIC. ADVENTURES.He is making normal spore content prior to the release of Galactic Adventures, so that he can use them in his missions and such. Like making themed buildings/creatures with a future mission in mind. You need to get more practice in skim-reading, my man.

He thought I was insulting him because of the fact that he was doing things for GA.I was trying to help him. Plus, he never said that he didn't have GA. I will admit that I skimmed his first post a little though.Oh, and I'm not emo, I just don't like being called a troll for no reason.

No, he thought you were calling his percieved bluff about having GA, and was therefore trolling on something he didn't even claim to have. Its a bit different.Yeah, you were trying to help, I see that much, but it was just a misunderstanding. A mini drama resolved. Its all good, just a few crossed conversational wires is all
